TORI: ON LIFE AS A FOSTER CHILD + CHOOSING LIFE + FOSTERING AS A FORMER FOSTER YOUTH
Tori is a voice in the foster care and adoption community we all need to hear. This week’s conversation dives into tough topics but wow - Tori talks and shares about the hard things with such truth and grace. Her story is a beautiful reminder for all of us, but especially us mommas raising kids from hard places, that our ultimate identity is found in Christ but that hard pasts still shape who we are. Join us as Tori shares about her experience as a former foster youth, the choice for life, and how it’s okay that healing is a lifelong journey.
The intro song, The Source, is brought to you by one of the best new worship bands out there, The Evidence. Yes, the frontman is my (talented, brilliant, adorable, Jesus-loving) cousin. No, that's not why I love them.
In Tori’s amazingly adorable book club, which I need to be a part of, they pass books and journals and share their thoughts. Her current read is I Closed Too Many Eyes by Paul S Arneson.
Tori shares that she’s currently listening to Craig Groeshel’s Life Church Podcast and talks about one particular sermon - Praying Dangerous Prayers - that really stood out to her. Sounds like one we all need to check out!
